Character Rides

What better way to lure a child and make him or her beg for a ride than to use their favourite TV character?  From Muffin the Mule, Doctor Who and Noddy to Bob the Builder, Postman Pat and My Little Pony, just about every well-known show has been covered.  Browsing through this page is almost like flicking through the channels of a magical television that shows kids' favourites from the 1950s right up to the present day.
